Adoptions at Boksburg SPCA up and running

Strict Covid-19 health regulations will be applied to every person visiting the SPCA to adopt an animal

The Boksburg SPCA is happy to announce that they are now open for adoptions under level 4 strict guidelines.

This comes after the National Council of SPCAs (NSPCA) sent a request to the COVID Nerve Centre Committee on behalf of all SPCAs and animal welfare organisations around South Africa, asking for their permission to allow adoptions to re-open under the level four of lockdown.

According to Boksburg SPCA manager Vicky Finnemore, for now they are adopting out animals to Boksburg residents only by appointments with strict bio security in place.

“We are also open for vaccinations, microchips, dog food sales, blankets and dog jackets,” Finnemore said.
